In her 2010 book, Multipliers: How the Best Leaders Make Everyone Smarter, leadership expert Wiseman described the characteristics of leaders who tap into the knowledge of others. In this book for teachers and administrators, Wiseman teams with leadership coach Allen and veteran principal Foster to apply the multiplier concept to school leadership. Drawing on a study of over 400 educational leaders, the authors explain how multipliers attract and develop talent, how they drive innovation in education, and how they build communities. Better yet, they show how anyone can acquire the skills to become a multiplier. The book includes vignettes of many real school leaders, plus a list of selected leaders and their schools with contact info. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
